I have a samsung galaxy s22 phone with android. I had a wear OS device that I paired with the phone but cannot now remember the passcode. Sometime around the time I paired my wear OS device and maybe due to an app I had installed on that device, my android now beeps on the hour, every hour, all hours of the day and night. It is a little annoying and it causes me to turn off my notifications and notification bell so that I am not constantly interrupted. Today it started beeping twice on the hour. I fear I may need to do a factory reset on the phone because i cannot stop this beeping. I have roughly 700 apps on my phone but few have notifications enabled. When I get a beep on the hour there is no notification, just the beep. My alarms are all disabled.

Is there a way I can stop this without wiping everything on my phone and starting from scratch with a factory reset? I have factory reset my wearos device and re-paired it with my phone but the hourly beeps continue.

    Have you uninstalled wearos and left it uninstalled for a while before reinstalling? That would verify whether it is causing the beeping or not. Beyond that, it sounds like a system level app if it is not showing up in notification history or the taskbar. You may want to check if you have any app notifications hidden in system notification settings.
